   I suggest to make some changes in button panel in WebUI.

   1) First of all hide "Debug" button into "More actions..." or in Settings window at all.
   2) "Add URL" button change to "Add URL/torrent" (or name it simply "Add" or "Open"). This button opens dialog window, where we can add "URL of a .torrent file or a magnet/oneswarm URI" or open torrent-file from computer.
   3) Remove "Play" button. Everybody uses double-click to play media :)
   4) Add "Start/Stop" button to start or stop downloading/uploading selected items.
   5) Move "Manage visibility" button from "More actions..." menu and name it "Visibility".
   6) Move "View swarm details" button from "More actions..." and name it "Details".

   See my screenshot: http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/3492/newpanel.png (sorry for missed css-styles)

   P.S. For example, I'm tired to open select menu "More actions..." to start/stop swarm every time...

   No. YOU are not everybody. I, for instance, use that double-click for opening the folder in which the torrent data is contained :)

   Sorry if this sounds harsh, but these changes seem all minor to me, if not just pointless.
   I'd like to believe the devs have more urgent matters to focus on. Like renaming hell, CPU usage, improving searches, other known bugs etc... That, I would like to see !
   I can wait for the cosmetic changes...

   Yes, I agree with you :)
   But opening the folder by double click doesn't work in Linux :(

   Of course, these cosmetic changes are minor. But they will be neccessary in future and making them today is not long or hard :)
